Hybrid IT provider
Additionally, Flexential won approval in April 2020 to host technology supporting sports gaming operations in its Colorado data centers. Flexential provides secure colocation and connectivity services, for online sports gaming companies to enable end customers to bet on sporting events via the internet, mobile device, or other telecommunications platforms.
Tom Myers, regional vice president of Flexential, said,
“The online sports gaming operators need secure, highly available facilities for their applications to ensure safe transactions, maximum uptime and internet availability for end customers. Flexential is the obvious choice because of our background, flexibility and reputation to support this launch by empowering the hybrid IT infrastructure of these online gaming companies. Sports gaming will generate billions of dollars in revenue. This ultimately supports the state of Tennessee’s educational programs and provides winnings to residents throughout the state who enjoy sports gaming.”
Flexential will meet all the requirements for working with the new gaming operations with its three secure, compliant data centers located in the Nashville area.
